8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageNew Trier high school is full of students who bully others relentlessly. The administration sweeps all sorts of problems under the rugs. They really only care about students who are athletes and parents who donate money. Many move here because of the schools. Our family can’t wait to leave because of how awful the administration and teachers have treated my children.Parent Review2mo ago - New Trier Township H S Northfield

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHms has held up for a while and is a great school! The teachers are very understanding, caring supportive, and fun while also knowing how to teach the class in an understanding way. Some of the teachers there have been there for 20 years and know what they are doing. They are very smart. Now being more general, Highcrest has a good schedule, late start at 8:50 to let kids sleep in more, and are very strict in a good way about keeping the school safe and a good environment. The rooms are cozy, to fit each class the way they need it to be. There’s a fair amount of learning and homework and it’s stuff that is vital to the future. Not only is it prepared for students well, but it is easy to have good connections to the teachers and qualities of the school that make it an almost perfect learning environment, especially house 2. I would definitely recommend this school for your kids.Other Review1y ago - Mckenzie Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHomeworkIn our experience the students do not receive much homework, there is an emphasis on reading every night. I appreciate this, as I believe students spend the majority of their day in school, and at home should have quality time with their family. TeachersTeachers at this school are effective:The teachers communicate and get parents involved in the school Learning DifferencesMy son receives reading intervention, they communicate his growth. I do wish they had more reading specialists employed at the district, sometimes an aide delivers intervention, I believe this should be done by a teacher with a degree in reading. BullyingIn my experience, this has not been an issue the teachers create a climate of love and students respect and get along with each other. Parent Involvement If you are looking for a place to get involved as a parent, make new friends, create life long friendships for both yourself and your child this is the place.Parent Review2y ago - Wilmette Junior High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not good here. The better reviews were a decade old, the school has a bad air conditioning problem and im always falling behind, sweating, and getting picked on. Work on your school because I dislike it.Student Review1y ago
